Sheepist Plurality
1 pig, 2 pigs, a herd of pigs
1 dog, 2 dogs, a pack of dogs
1 crow, 2 crows, a flock of crows
See how that works
Easy, logical plurals
Simple isn’t it?
So why the sheep bigotry?
Why the unfair difference?
1 sheep, 2 sheep, a flock of sheep
If that’s fair and right
Then let it be true for all
1 cow, 2 cow, a herd of cow
1 rat, 2 rat, a pack of rat
1 duck, 2 duck, a flock of duck
Sounds stupid doesn’t it?
It’s not just stupid
It’s a sheep hate crime
It is clearly Sheepism!
What harm have sheep ever done
They give us wool for clothes
They give us meat for food
They de-weed and cut the grass
For some they give sexual pleasure
Lambs are so damn cute
Jesus is the lamb of God
Which means that God is a sheep
That’s just how important
Sheeps really are
Sounds perfectly logical
Doesn’t it?
So get with the programme
From now on let it be sheeps
1 sheep, 2 sheeps, a flock of sheeps
There; that’s much better
Isn’t it?
